Just a thought about 45's current Secret Service detail.....

I think these agents want to be with 45....I strongly recommend that they be switched out ASAP....they can't demand the position........send them elsewhere off his detail and assign fresh, trusting agents to 45 and his family/ all that apply.

I bet they relay information for 45....just a hunch..... but this move would be a prudent action. My gut feeling....


Time to clean HOUSE with Secret Service.

I'm just thinking tRump's current Secret Service detail can be " agents for tRump" as they want to be with him and do communication, spy, serve his bidding etc for tRump.... I don't think we have to give tRump such enabling agents that are against Biden...

If you needed a good chance of questioning a raunchier(?) bunch? That'd be a good place to start. See where they have worked recently too. Any 'temp hires' from Blackwater issue? Mercenaries now gone legit? Who's putins look-out? Could it be? Wow.

tools of the RW. FBI and CIA are both in bed with the anti-any government organizations. They want direct and global corporate control. They will allow enough, "government," to keep the prisons full and the population terrorized. and to collect the taxes from the laboring, working and professional class, anyone who has to be on a payroll is just trash to them.

Yes I am experiencing some anger today.

hanging around in expensive accomodations at golf courses, riding around in golf carts, dining in luxury ballrooms, etc. Lavish lifestyle for a government "escort." How many millions/billions of taxpayer dollars did TFG waste by constantly dragging a small army to his golf courses for fun and profit?

They say Putin has a "private army." Does TFG have one now?

Now that I think about it - those SS Agents that protected Tr**p were treated royally everywhere he went - and all at the expense of us taxpayers.

They had the best of everything when they were with him and that's how he gained their loyalty.

He wasn't shelling out the money to house and feed them - we were. So he spared no expense. He probably lavished them with the best rooms, conditions and the best food.

It's no wonder that they became his loyal subjects. They were living the lifestyle of the rich and famous at our expense.

That's how he got to them.

maybe with a change or two, but they thought of changing the president's detail from day one.


This report is from 2020.

As Biden readies his new administration, the Secret Service plans to bring back to the White House detail a handful of senior agents whom Biden knows well from their work more than four years ago guarding him and his family when he was vice president.

Back in May:

"The Secret Service is aware of an off-duty incident involving two employees which may constitute potential policy violations," agency spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said in a statement to ABC News. "The individuals will be immediately returned back to their post of duty and placed on administrative leave. There was no impact to the upcoming trip. We have very strict protocols and policies for all employees and we hold ourselves to the highest professional standards. Given this is an active administrative personnel matter, we are not in a position to comment further."

The agent who allegedly got into the argument with the cab driver is scheduled to be interviewed by local police before boarding a flight back to the U.S. The decision to send them home was made while the president was still en route to Asia.

Then a couple of days ago in Israel:

JERUSALEM — A U.S. Secret Service employee working on President Joe Biden's trip to Israel was briefly detained after a "physical encounter" there and has been sent back to the United States.

The incident occurred late Monday, ahead of Biden's arrival in Israel on Wednesday. The employee was detained and questioned by Israeli police, who released him without charges, a Secret Service spokesperson said.

"In accordance with agency protocol, his access to Secret Service systems and facilities was suspended pending further investigation," the spokesperson said.

Swap out Bloated Tick’s detail with an all African-American one. That’ll calm him the fuck down real quick.

He had only the most "loyal" guys who treated him like the Godfather. I don't know if that's still true, but it was when he lived in the White House.

On the other hand there are many Secret Service agents who are not on the President's or former-President's detail. These guys have been highly trained and they do their jobs well. There's no reason to fire them. It's those "kiss the ring" guys who need to go. Let Chump pay their salaries out of his own pocket. Uncle Sam has no reason to pay them.

Just sayin'
